Why does the vincristine drug damages the mitotic spindle?
Vincristine disrupts the formation and function of the mitotic spindle by binding to tubulin, a protein that helps in spindle formation. This interferes with the normal process of cell division, leading to mitotic arrest and ultimately cell death.
What would happen if mitosis stopped working?
If mitosis were to stop working, cell division would cease and normal growth, development, and repair of tissues would be disrupted. This could result in cell death or abnormal cell growth, leading to serious health issues such as tissue atrophy or tumors. Ultimately, it could be fatal to the organism.
What will the result if the cell cycle is uncontrolledor if the cell continue to divide without stopping?
If the cell cannot stop dividing then a tumour will form. The tumour can be cancerous or benign. Uncontrolled cell division may be caused by substances called carcinogens (e.g. in cigarettes) which can switch the P53 gene off. This gene is responsible for controlling cell division.
Explain why cell respiration is controlled by enzymes?
Cell respiration is contolled by enzymes in order to prevent an explosion-like release of energy that could be fatal to a cell. Instead, the enzymes (cytochromes in the ETC) allow for a controlled release of energy that goes on to form the H+ gradient that synthesizes ATP.
In what part of the female reproductive tract do the sperm cell and the egg cell meet?
The fallopian tube. The fertilized eggs then travels down to the uterus and implants itself there. When a fertilized egg does not make it to the uterus and implants in the fallopian tube, the woman will end up with what's called a tubal pregnancy and must go to surgery right away since it can be fatal.

What drugs are used in chemotherapy for Hodgkin's disease?
MOPP (either mechlorethamine or methotrexate with Oncovin, procarbazine, prednisone) and ABVD (Adriamycin or doxorubicin, bleomycin, vincristine, dacarbazine).
Why does the vincristine drug damages the mitotic spindle?
Vincristine disrupts the formation and function of the mitotic spindle by binding to tubulin, a protein that helps in spindle formation. This interferes with the normal process of cell division, leading to mitotic arrest and ultimately cell death.
What medical conditions does Adriamycin treat?
Adriamycin treats many different conditions, but is mainly used in the treatment of cancer as it is an anti tumor drug. It is often used in the treatment of early stage breast cancer.
How does pacilitaxel help in cancer?
